The Wild Card

About the book

The players will do anything for him, the media is obsessed, and the fans still wear his jersey. Everyone's in love with handsome, authoritative Coach Tate Ward—except me, and the feeling’s mutual. To save the Vancouver Storm from being sold, though, we need to work together and win the Stanley Cup, and I can’t help but push his buttons to get under his skin. He moves me into his guest house, though, and makes me sleep in his bed. He encourages me with the team and tells me I belong. He’s adorable with his daughter and makes me long for things I shouldn’t. I try to make him break, but he never loses control—until he finds me crying and fires the person responsible. And when his brother hits on me, he loses his mind with jealousy. Beneath his controlled exterior, Tate is protective, playful, and funny. He puts everyone before himself, but when I encourage him to be selfish, I learn that Tate wants… Me. The Wild Card is a pro hockey single dad romance. It is the fifth and final book in the Vancouver Storm series but can be read as a standalone.
